scoring in their last outings, the Blues boss
claims he is pleased with the performances of
all of his forwards so far this season
Jose Mourinho has praised the efforts of
Chelsea forwards Fernando Torres and Samuel
Eto'o after they both scored for the Blues in
their most recent appearances for the club.
Chelsea are unbeaten in their last seven
matches in all competitions, with Eto'o and
Torres each finding the net in victories over
Cardiff City and Schalke respectively.
And, despite the fact that the duo - and Demba
Ba - have just one Premier League goal
between them all season, Mourinho was quick
to praise the duo for their recent showings.
"I'm happy with all the strikers," Mourinho
told reporters.
"They were not scoring goals but they were
working really hard and doing a good job for
the team.
"There are different ways of contributing.
Sometimes scoring goals, which is the most
important thing of course.
"Last week was a positive week for Samuel and
Fernando because they scored goals."
The Portuguese was fined £8,000 by the
Football Association on Thursday for
complaining to the fourth official about time-
wasting during the 4-1 win against Cardiff.
Mourinho was sent to the stands for his
vehement protests and, although the 50-year-
old still disagrees with his dismissal, he has no
issue with the punishment.
"The referee wrote the truth. He was correct
and honest," he added. "I am still convinced I
shouldn't be sent off - but that's okay."
